You’re not like everyone else.
Neither are we.
You don’t need a real estate agent. You need someone who understands your challenges and builds your real estate strategy around your goals.
Every client is unique. To support you properly, we can’t work on volume.
None of our processes are standardised.
We adapt to your expectations to offer you truly tailor-made support.
Scoping your project

- Budget validation
A razor-sharp shortlist
We work with every agency and analyse every offer on the market (4,000+) to keep only those that truly match your expectations. Not 50.

Any questions?
We are a foreign company setting up in Paris. Can you help us, in English?
Yes. We work in English from the first call to the signed lease, and we take the time to explain how the Paris office market works: commercial leases (3/6/9), managed offices, coworking, purchase, guarantees and the usual negotiation levers.
Many companies start with a first flexible office to test the market, then move to a French headquarters once the team grows. We help you choose the right solution for each stage, according to your situation, timeline and budget, and we negotiate on your behalf with no conflict of interest.
Whatever your project, you have a single, senior point of contact who handles the search, the viewings, the negotiation and the move-in for you.
What makes Leosquare different from other office real estate firms?
At Leosquare, we have made a choice that is rare on the market: we are 100% tenant-side. We never represent landlords’ interests, which rules out any conflict of interest when selecting offices or negotiating. Our only priority is you.
Our approach is also completely contract-agnostic. Traditional commercial lease, managed office, coworking or purchase: we master every type of office and independently select the most relevant solution for your needs. We work with every player on the market to bring you the best opportunities, without bias.
Finally, there is no hand-over halfway through the mission. You have a single, always-senior point of contact (at least 5 years’ experience) who runs your project from A to Z: from defining your needs to fitting out your space with our partners.
So basically, you’re a real estate agent?
Stop, you’ll hurt our feelings! Yes, we hold a French real estate transaction licence (carte de transaction), proof that we are legally authorised to represent you. Not everyone can say that…
But we are not traditional real estate agents. We are your real estate ally. Forget the brokers who send listings and disappear after signing: at Leosquare, we have designed demanding, tailor-made support.
If you just want to receive listings, platforms such as SeLoger or BureauxLocaux will do the job perfectly well. With us, you hand over your project and we take care of everything: selection, viewings, negotiation, move-in… with in-depth expertise and unfailing responsiveness.
Our ambition: to reconcile you with real estate agents. 😉
Who are your services for?
Most of our clients are startups, scale-ups (and unicorns), but we also support established companies and large groups (Axa and the French Constitutional Council are among our clients).
Most of them call on us several times: for each new office search, but also to renegotiate their lease or find a successor tenant. Above all, we build a long-term relationship with you.
We take on projects from 10 desks for serviced offices (coworking, managed offices) and from 100 m² for commercial leases or acquisitions, and support projects of up to 5,000 m².
❌ Who are your services not for?
Institutional landlords. We never market any property. If you want to let or sell your premises, we are not the right partner, and that is precisely what allows us to defend our clients with no trade-offs to make.
Those who want as many listings as possible and contact lots of agencies to be sure not to miss anything. The Paris market is widely shared, so you would receive the same list three times, with no one truly committed to your project. Our value is not in the number of offers we send, but in the 90% we rule out for you.
Searches outside Paris, Neuilly and La Défense. This has been our home turf since 2016. We know the buildings, the owners, the operators and the real negotiation margins street by street. Elsewhere in the Île-de-France region or the rest of France, we would not have that depth, and we would rather tell you than sell you expertise we don’t have.
Anything that isn’t office space. Retail, restaurants, warehouses, light industrial premises, housing: these are other markets, other networks, other rules. Here too, we will refer you to a specialist rather than learn on your project.
Projects under 10 desks or 100 m². Below that size, the added value of an advisor doesn’t justify the time it takes, for you or for us. Online platforms will do the job just as well.
Do you really have access to every office available in Paris?
Anyone who claims access to 100% of the market isn’t very credible…
We have access to the offers of every market player (JLL, CBRE, BNP Paribas Real Estate and 150+ office real estate agencies…) and we partner with 300+ coworking spaces and operators (Morning, Deskeo, WeWork…).
We can’t guarantee 100% of the offers, but probably 95%. Some offers are well hidden, but we are convinced that even without them we will find your ideal office!
How long does it take to find an office in Paris?
On average, we find your offices in 23 days. Sometimes more, sometimes less 🙂 It all depends on the complexity of your search and how quickly you can make decisions. Our record: 12 hours to find, visit and sign 🙂
How do you get paid?
At Leosquare, we are paid only on success, and at no extra cost to you compared with other market players.
We work on a fee-sharing basis with the agency marketing the office: instead of paying 100% of the fees to a single broker, you pay 50% to the agency and 50% to Leosquare.
And no, this doesn’t limit our access to offers in any way: it is standard practice, accepted by everyone on the market, because we bring qualified tenants, a real time-saver for agencies.
In some cases, if you are looking exclusively for a serviced office (coworking or managed office), we can support you free of charge. We are then paid by the operator as a business introducer.
You may be wondering: “But will I end up paying a higher rent?” The answer is no. If that were the case, you would find out sooner or later, and we wouldn’t have so many 5-star Google reviews 😉
In every case, we tailor our proposal to the mission and are fully transparent about the terms of each offer, which may vary depending on the type of contract or the landlord. No unpleasant surprises: everything is clear from the start.
